You know the song and so do I
It was the song that I was…thinking of!
Killing in the name of
This was my pick too. Might start a revolution.
Wake Up - RATM
People need to get really fucking angry and start causing serious trouble for those that are burning our home and hurting our friends.
Welcome my son,
welcome, to the machine.
Where have you been?
It’s alright, we know where you’ve been.
Welcome to the Machine, Pink Floyd
I was birthed to that album.
Ænima by TOOL
I wanna see it all flushed away.
I sure could use a vacation
Happy Birthday, if I've gotta sit there quietly and feel awkward, so do all of you
Only moron and genius
Would fight a losing battle
Against the super ego
When giving in is so damn comforting
And so we go, on with our lives
We know the truth, but prefer lies
Lies are simple, simple is bliss
Why go against tradition when we can?
Admit defeat, live in decline
24 years later, I still get chills every time I listen to this song.
I'm noticing a distinct lack of people saying Rick Astly - Never Gonna Give You Up
The emotion: mild amusement
Same emotions?
On a good day by Above and Beyond.
I first heard it at a rave, rolling on ecstacy, going through pretty bad depression. It was during their "Group Therapy" set. I felt so connected to everyone around me. So peaceful. So understood. I cared and loved everyone around me and I felt the same in return. Sure, I was high. But it was a moment a decade ago that I can still remember vividly, and a point where I started taking my mental health seriously and started to deal with it and finally start to feel good about myself.
ZSK - Antifascista we always need more, proud, dangerous, commited antifascists.
For me, this song is an example of a bold, counter rightwing-populism narrative. We need more strong and proud narratives on the left, to tell people they can feel important, powerful, accepted and part of something important - on the morally correct side of history.
Achy Breaky Heart.
I just don’t think they’d understand
Megadeth, Symphony of Destruction
shame Mustaine is such a chud. I genuinely can't listen to Megadeth anymore.
I struggled with that a lot when I learned he was a born again evangelical these days, but the messages in his earlier work are still valid. There are so few metal bands with good technical sound and solid vocals. I think with him, I didn't see how his narcissism and religion tainted the earlier work.
Now Metallica, they tried the ruin the Internet and hurt a lot of good people doing it too. Fuck Metallica.
Enigma - Principles of Lust
No time for fighting when we’re all busy fucking to new age 90’s sex anthems
Hiromi Uehara - Deep into the night
...because I think everyone need to chill the fuck down.
If that doesn't work, I'll go with Dimmu Borgir - Kings of the Carnival Creation so everyone can fuck the chill up instead.
Insane Clown Posse - "Chris Benoit" - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=574ULaCk4iE
Inspiration for the song came from wrestler Chris Benoit, who murdered his wife and son before committing suicide. Insane Clown Posse broadly alluded to the murders in the song's lyrics, but the focus of the song is not the murders themselves, but of suddenly losing one's sanity, and eclipsing in violence.[3] The song pertains to the album's overall concept, which "teaches us to respect the life we've been given and do our best to avoid an early death."
"Suicide Is Painless"
Mozart - Requiem
Smooth Sailing - Queens of the Stone Age
This song has such an incredible vibe. It was played a lot on tour after shows. In the truck, the hotel, the bar. Wherever.
Reminds me of the good days of making music and hanging out with some of my favorite people. I'd like the whole world to feel free, loved and valid all at once. Might just make a difference.
Peace Train
The Aglet song from Phineas and Ferb. Just to make everyone aware of the name of that plasticky end of your laces.
Japandroids - Near To The Wild Heart Of Life
This song aggressively reminds me of the mix of anxiety and excitement I had before moving out on my own for the first time. I came from a small town, and moved to the "big city" in my province. I had never moved anywhere before, let alone without my parents. That was 15 years ago now, but this takes me right back. It's also a banger (in my opinion).
Right Where It Belongs - Nine Inch Nails
The first time it was a tragedy,
The second time it's a farce.
Outside it's 1933,
So I am hitting the bars.
And I don't know what's going on anymore.
The world outside is burning with a brand new light,
But it isn't one that makes me feel warm.
Don't go mistaking your house burning down for the dawn.
Pig by The Dave Matthews Band.
It’s about hope. And sometimes that’s all we have, so… don’t burn the day.
Parabol/Parabola by Tool. That song can bring me to tears.
